American Party
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A political party by the name of the American Party has existed several times in the United States:
- The ante-bellum American Party grew out of the Know-Nothing movement and was based on Nativism.
- There were also several other late 19th century nativist political parties with the same name, notably including one founded in 1887.
- The modern American Party was a successor of the 1968 American Independent Party. The current American Independent Party split from it in 1976.
